South Dakota 4H Rodeo Finals
From left Brandy March, Miles Englebert, Chance Englebert, and Travis Schroth all came home with beautiful saddles.
The South Dakota 4H Rodeo Finals for 2010 were held Aug 27, 28, and 29, at the Stanley County Fairgrounds in Ft. Pierre.
Area youth attending included Chance and Miles Englebert, Brandy March, Matt Peters, and Travis Schroth.
This schedule presented a special challenge for the Englebert boys as they weren’t about to miss the first Edgemont home football game which was scheduled for Aug. 27th as well.
So the family drove to Ft. Pierre, Friday for Chance to compete in Bareback Bronc Riding and Miles to be in the Junior Bull Riding. On Saturday they drove back to Edgemont (225 miles one way!) to play in the football game -- then straight back to Ft Pierre to ride again Sunday. Mom (Dawn Englebert) said, “It was so worth all the driving to see those boys win that football game.” The boys agreed when they each came home on Sunday with winners saddles!
Also coming home with saddles were Brandy March in Junior Breakaway Roping and Travis Schroth with two saddles: for Saddle Bronc and Senior all around. Matt Peters placed fourth in Tie Down roping.
We are proud of all of you!!
